How old is your friend as this is an important factor.
My daughter suffers like this with severe acne and she was put on the pill this helped no end it was not for contraception you can take pill that does not have this type of drug in it.
She steam cleans her face twice a week with hot water. She boils a kettle pours the water into a bowl and then put a towel over her head and stays under for five mins. It open up all the pours so that after you can cleanse the skin to get every single bit of grim out.It is cheap and effective just as good as a real face steamer that costs money.
Diet can play a huge part in the condition of your skin and even the most healthy eater can still get acne.
A good cream from chemist if she is not allergic to nuts is called Panoxyl you put cream on your face for five min to start and then wash off. Over a period of time you increase the time on and it does help the skin a lot.
To be honest I am suprised the doctor has not taken any tests to check blood and your friend may be anemic .
Good cleansing and good diet rich in vitamin C should help if there is nothing the doctor can do.
